$5 - $10 4th Grade Reading Resources

Reading and math centers are an important part of many elementary classrooms. As teachers, it can be challenging to ensure that our students are on task during center time. One way to help with this is by using paperless morning meeting center rotation slides.

Center Rotation Slides

Using paperless morning meeting center rotation slides with a timer helps structure and focus students’ center time while providing necessary support to help them complete tasks independently during reading centers or math centers. Slides provide visuals and clear directions that students can follow along, allowing them to access information easily. Additionally, the timer lets the students know when they need to move on from one task to another so they don’t get overwhelmed or bogged down in one activity for too long. This helps keep their minds engaged throughout center time and encourages them to work at a productive pace. 

Reading Centers or Math Centers

In addition, having visual prompts throughout the slide presentation is helpful for younger learners who may need more support completing tasks independently during reading centers and math centers. You can insert clipart or images from Google to help students who cannot read what the center is. 

Another important aspect of the timer is that it will hold you accountable for your guided math and guided reading groups. It will keep you focused and intentional with the group you are with and allow you time to meet with all of your groups.

There are 15-minute timers, 12-minute timers, and 10-minute timers that can be used for reading or math centers. Delete the slides that you do not need. If you need more than four rotations, you can duplicate the slide. If you need more than four groups, duplicate the bar, create more squares, and move or make the timer smaller. 

Overall, using a slide presentation with a timer during reading and math centers can be incredibly beneficial for both teachers and students alike! It keeps everyone organized and provides direction so that learning objectives are met in an effective manner. So why not give it a try today?

Timers for 5 Minutes

 There are additional timers for 5 minutes in the slides for cleaning transitions, shorter center time, buffer time between subjects or a special, a challenge, group or independent work.

Timers for 3 Minutes

Finally, there are timers for 3 minutes in the slides for other transitions throughout the day. You can duplicate the slide to insert a new timer from Youtube if needed or easily edit the slides.

The topics and what is included:

• Google slides with timers for reading and math centers. 
• 10-minute timers for centers
• 12-minute timers for centers
• 15-minute timers for centers
• 5-minute timers

Why should I use bilingual labels in my classroom library?

There are several benefits to implementing these labels for both you and your students! Here are some reasons why you might choose to use bilingual labels in your classroom:

Create and display the TRUE meaning of Christmas**! Daily Devotions, Prayers, Scripture Readings, Ornaments & Advent Tree** are ALL included in this Jesse Tree resource to give you all you need to engage learners every day of this advent season!

This advent activity is called “The Jesse Tree” because of the Bible verse in Isaiah that describes a shoot, which is like a bud or new leaf, coming up from a tree stump of Jesse. Jesse’s family will grow and grow through the years; eventually, Jesus will be born! So this is sort of like Jesus’ family tree!

You will get:

• Daily Devotions: 1 introduction and 25 daily devotions that will guide you and your children/students in a daily Scripture reading, devotion, and prayer. Read aloud to a younger class or have older learners read themselves.

• Ornaments: 25 Ready to print and cut-out ornaments, provided in color and black and white.

• Printable Jesse Tree - 3 printable Jesse Tree options given. Two color options- one with placement guides and one blank, one black and white.

• Mini Jesse Tree Coloring Book - 25 half-page coloring pages with the Jesse Tree symbol/image and the correlating Bible verse.

This is the PERFECT Christmas Advent activity:

The Jesse Tree recounts many of the Old and New Testament stories that led up to Christ's birth. Through these stories, we will see how God had a plan to send His son the whole time!! Included in this printable Jesse Tree activity are:

• Introduction & The Bible
• The Creation
• The Fall (Adam and Eve)
• The Rainbow (Noah)
• Abram's Tent
• The Ram (Abraham/Isaac)
• Jacob's Dream
• Joseph's Coat
• The Passover
• The Law (Ten Commandments)
• Rahab's Rope
• Ruth's Grain
• Young David
• King David
• Isaiah's Message
• Daniel's Angel
• Jonah's Fish
• Bethlehem
• Zechariah
• John
• Mary
• Joseph
• Elizabeth
• The Trinity
• Jesus is Born

Each day you will learn about one of these stories by Scripture reading, devotion and prayer.

Then, cut and paste the provided correlating Christmas ornament on the Jesse tree!

There is also the option to have the younger one's color a page in the mini coloring book provided for each day of advent.

Thank you and HAPPY TEACHING!

---------------------------------------

** NOTE**

There are literally hundreds of prophecies Jesus fulfilled. The Jesse tree does not limit them or tell everything there is to know about our wonderful Savior. With this in mind, you will find The Jesse Tree has been designed in many different ways and created with varying Bible stories and images and this is ok. I hope you enjoy the one I put together through much prayer and Bible study. I was truly inspiring to see Jesus in all the stories!

Decodable Reading Activity packet includes a variety of activites for French teachers. Quick and simple K-2 reading fluency activities that are decodable and aligned with the Science of Reading. Fun and engaging French resource targeting those learning in the French Immersion, Core French, or modern language programs. Build a strong foundation in French language with educational resources specifically designed with your students in mind.

As I got into using these decodable reading passages in class, the students guided me to stretching out the resource even more to create a cute little packet for them to do a lot of the work on their own.

What's in the pack?

There are 4 original texts that explore complex sounds in French

Target sounds include AN/EN, ON, OU, OI

Text 1: Blanche

-le son AN et EN

-3 variations: a) text with decodable and heart words with comprehension questions with the target sound; b) text with decodable passage with writing lines so students can encode, write responses, or practice writing target words; c) decodable text with target sound with a box provided for students to create a picture to show comprehension (we do picture and label for beginner writers).

Text 2: L'hérisson Tonton

-le son ON

-3 variations: a) text with decodable and heart words with comprehension questions with the target sound; b) text with decodable passage with writing lines so students can encode, write responses, or practice writing target words; c) decodable text with target sound with a box provided for students to create a picture to show comprehension (we do picture and label for beginner writers).

Text 3: Lou le hibou

-le son OU

-3 variations: a) text with decodable and heart words with comprehension questions with the target sound; b) text with decodable passage with writing lines so students can encode, write responses, or practice writing target words; c) decodable text with target sound with a box provided for students to create a picture to show comprehension (we do picture and label for beginner writers).

Text 4: Le poisson Éloi

-le son OI

-3 variations: a) text with decodable and heart words with comprehension questions with the target sound; b) text with decodable passage with writing lines so students can encode, write responses, or practice writing target words; c) decodable text with target sound with a box provided for students to create a picture to show comprehension (we do picture and label for beginner writers).

How we use this in class:

My students now know that we read the passage first together as a group. We decode. We explore. We segment words. Blend them all so we are confident.

Next, we do activities with the sound blends themselves. Using a highlighter, students race to find all the target sound words in the text. I don’t know about you but my student LOVE highlighters! After that, students used the lined window to write all the target sound words so they’re sure they have them all. Then, we do a little exercise where we try to explain what happened in the story in as few words as possible.

The very last step is to draw a picture of what is happening in the text. Students can do most or all this activity pack on their own in the Grade One and Grade Two Immersion setting. It’s a great way to have them build confidence all while giving you the time to work with small groups at the back of your class!

Who can use this resource:

Teachers who are just getting accustomed to using strategies from the Science of Reading can use these simple texts to open up independent practice, small group evaluation, or up on a digital screen for whole group instruction and reading practice.

Make a set and send them home with students to build fluency in reading and confidence in reading strategies.

Texts are designed to build a number of common French sounds and get more challenging as they go on.

Correction sheet is handy for use with a substitute as they can confidently assess students and command the lesson even when they are not assured of their French skills.

What grade level:

I personally use these texts with Grade 1 and Grade 2 students in French Immersion. I feel confident that students from K-3 will find these most useful and teachers can come back to the texts with any students who may be experiencing challenges in their French reading skills. Core French teachers will be sure to add the resource to their repertoire for Grades 4 to 6 as they learn to read and write at the Junior level.

Science of Reading:

These texts are aligned with sounds being taught in any Science of Reading aligned curriculum. They are set up for student success based on the research for increasing reading fluency and building student confidence in the classroom!

Once you have established the strategies for identifying sounds, initial sounds, and blending sounds, segmenting sounds, students will be able to use these self-driven passages on their own. What a great way to build learning autonomy!
